Games For The Grocery Store

 Hello Fall ! I was given this fun kids educational activity to share with all of you. How many kids really enjoy a trip to the grocery store ? Well, that may change with this activity ! For more information on this and many other educational activities visit Education.com

Games for the Grocery StoreFew places are as dense with words as an ordinary grocery store. The next time you find yourself trolling the aisles with an impatient kid in tow, turn the trip on its head! Make it a reading adventure.

What You Need:
Newspaper ads or grocery store flyers
Pad of paper (to write down your list!)
Your local grocery store

What You Do:
1. Grocery fun can start before you’ve even left your house. Let kids cut out labels of their favorite foods, and keep a stack. When you’re ready to plan for a shopping trip, they can pull out their choices and discuss them with you.
2. Everyone has their favorite foods. But children rarely get a chance to vote for what lands on their plate. Invite your child to write something they love on the list. And talk to them about what else is on it, and why.
3. Using your list, have your kids help you find items, and cross them off together as you go.
4. Look for foods that begin with letter sounds or combinations. In the produce aisle, for example, you won’t see as many brand names; but you can have a detective hunt for delicious “ch” foods like cherries, or bright green leafy ones that start with the letter “l.”
5. When you’re almost done, and patience is wearing thin, ask your kids to group items that start with the same letter – bread with bananas, carrots with crackers and cauliflower. This is one more way to invite your children to stay amused and engaged.

The grocery store doesn’t have to be a nightmare. With the right games, your kids might not even complain. In fact, they might even love it!

Ace's Affordable Mid-West Remedies

I have a Facebook friend who has gone into business making his own herbal remedies. I bought some samples and am in love !! 

Check out his shop here: Ace's Affordable Mid-West Remedies ND Conjure

The first item I tried is my favorite so far. It's called 13Herb Healing & Revitalizing Conditioning Spray. This is the description from his page: 13Herb Healing nd Revitalizing Conditioning Spray for dry, damaged, malnourished, split and stripped hair! Great for hair growth and delivering essential nutrients to restore, repair, and nourish your hair from root to end!

This formula also comes in a  serum.

 

A dry shampoo.

 

and a concentrated shampoo.

The next product I tried was the Harmonious Home Sizzle Bath Salts. So relaxing, and the smell is amazing !! Here is his description: Harmonious Home Sizzle Salts have blossomed with calming lavender, chamomile and other floral fragrances complimented by a basil and sage undertone. Kick back and relax, quench your body and spirit with the peaceful indulgence they have desperately been craving!  

This scent also comes in body bars.

  wax melts.

 and room sprays.

I am so happy with these products, I will be placing another order soon. I recommend giving John's items a try !! All natural ingredients, organic, and no synthetic fragrances. This stuff is definitely better quality than anything store bought, without any harsh additives. 

I'm really looking forward to this product: Panty Dropper Plumping Lip Balm, made with Cinnamon.

Also the Panty Dropper Body Butter. Here is his description:  Herbs used are well known for heighten female libido, to help regulate cycles, aid in toning of the uterus while helping protect from tumors and aids in prevention of some cancers by promoting healthy release of certain body chemicals. fights and prevents a variety infections but also fights depression and insomnia many other amazing benefits besides being an aphrodisiac!
